About EGIDE

EGIDE is building a new European defense leader focused on scalable, intelligent, air-defense architectures. We develop mass-use interceptors and mission systems that combine missile-grade performance with modern embedded computing and advanced autonomy.

We are growing fast and assembling a world-class technical team driven by ambition, engineering rigor, and real operational impact. If you want to help shape the future of European defense innovation — this is the place.

About the Role

We are seeking a highly skilled Electronics Engineer to lead the design, prototyping, validation, and industrialization of advanced embedded electronic boards. The role focuses on high-performance computing architectures (CPU/GPU/FPGA-based systems) and associated power electronics subsystems.

You will be involved throughout the full product lifecycle, from system architecture definition to production ramp-up, working closely with mechanical, embedded software, and system engineers.

What You’ll Do

1. Electronic System Architecture & Design

  • Define electronic architectures for embedded computing systems

  • Design and integrate power electronics stages

  • Perform schematic capture, component selection, and PCB stack-up definition

2. Prototyping & Validation

  • Support PCB layout reviews with focus on high-speed and power constraints

  • Define and execute bring-up procedures for prototypes

  • Develop validation plans and conduct electrical testing

3. Industrialization & Production Support

  • Prepare designs for manufacturing

  • Collaborate with contract manufacturers for prototype and pre-series builds

  • Support production ramp-up and resolve field-return analysis when required

4. Cross-Functional Collaboration

  • Work closely with embedded software team to ensure hardware/software co-design

  • Interface with mechanical engineers for enclosure integration and thermal management

  • Participate in customer technical discussions and technical reviews

You Are a Fit If You Have:

  • Master’s degree or PhD in Electrical Engineering or related field

  • 5+ years of experience in advanced electronic board design

  • Experience with multi-layer PCB design

  • Proficiency with ECAD tools (Altium, Cadence, or equivalent)

  • Hands-on lab experience in debugging and validation

  • Understanding of EMI/EMC constraints in embedded systems

Nice to have:

  • Knowledge of GPU-based embedded computing platforms

  • Experience with safety-critical or mission-critical systems

  • Previous experience in a start-up or fast-paced R&D environment


Why Join EGIDE?

  • Build the future of European defense capability

  • Work on real systems that fly — fast

  • Competitive salary + meaningful equity

  • 100% health coverage

  • A high-autonomy engineering culture

  • A chance to shape a category-defining company from the ground up
